I recently started a thread on DigitalPoint to enlist the services of a writer to write some content on my poker website. I am more than capable of writing what I want, but I was just feeling a little lazy at that particular moment.

I got a lot of responses to my thread and asked to see some samples of their work. All the writers that replied to me were either expensive or didn’t write english in a North American style that was easy to read. I ended up choosing an Indian writer who’s english, I thought, was the most acceptable of the bunch to write my poker articles. Once I got the first article back I was so discusted with the quality that I couldn’t even get through the entire thing. I immediately contacted the writer and ended our relationship.

In hindsight, I should have went with one of the higher priced American writers instead of going through this nightmare. I have changed my mind and I am going to write 8 of the important articles for my poker site and continue searching for a North American writer to complete 40 more for me.

The lesson to take home….you get what you pay for!
